Synopsis : Step by step this book lifts the wraps off subjects like the microprocessor, the ROM, RAM and ports, and explains what the all-important registers are and how they are used. Readers are taken through the design of simple machine code programs and introduced to the type of software tools that the professionals use, such as assembler-editors and monitors. The use of an assembler and monitor is clearly described and the book ends with a set of examples which take the beginner well past the L-plate stage. By the time you have finished this book, only practice will be needed to turn you into a proficient machine code programmer
